Calibrating the Treadmill Distance

To record more accurate distances for your treadmill runs, you can calibrate the treadmill distance after you run at least 2.4 km (1.5 mi.) on a treadmill. If you use different treadmills, you can manually calibrate the treadmill distance on each treadmill or after each run.

  1. Start a treadmill activity (Starting an Activity).
  2. Run on the treadmill until your vívoactive® 5 watch records at least 2.4 km (1.5 mi.).
  3. After you complete your run, press Letter A symbol.
  4. Check the treadmill display for the distance traveled.
  5. Select an option:
    • To calibrate the first time, enter the treadmill distance on your watch.

    • To manually calibrate after the first-time calibration, swipe up, select Calibrate & Save, and enter the treadmill distance on your watch.
